I am definitely not the world´s best housekeeper, anyone who knows me and who has stopped by unexpectedly (or even not-so-unexpectedly unfortunately) will be able to tell you this. However, I happen to have chosen the perfect mate . . . a man who loves to clean. So we balance each other out quite well, [...]

A House Full of Sickies

Well, everyone is still sick here. Except Irving who is annoyingly healthy considering that he stays up late and drinks a lot of soft drinks and eats junk food. Grrr.
So, we´ve been watching lots of Shrek (1, 2 AND 3!) and just relaxing. It´s nice to a point. I mean, wiping noses every five seconds [...]

Ok, so I´ve had a few requests for more photos of myself on the blog . . . the problem is that I´m usually the one taking the picture! But last night the boys and I were having fun and Irving picked up the camera, so here are a few shots to satisfy those of [...]

Ok, well, to tell the truth, it´s a ways away, but our new builder is working very quickly to finish up our bathroom and I´m so happy to see the building going up!

That´s the beauty that we enjoyed for my birthday. And the next morning for breakfast . . . I know, I´m such a bad mom . . . but could YOU resist making your child THIS happy?
We had eaten all but a little sliver of cake by the night after my birthday (don´t worry, the [...]
Birthday Breakfast in Bed
Posted on April 12, 2008 - Filed Under Personal | 4 Comments
I have a lot of work to do today. Despite my best efforts, I didn´t finish up yesterday, so I was prepared to jump out of bed this morning and buckle down, even after having hit the sack at 2 am.
But this morning, Dante woke up and started calling his brother and Dorian was calling [...]

These days, sleep just isn´t something I get much of and believe it or not, the boys aren´t 100% responsible for that!
While they do wake up during the night still, Dorian has been really good and often only gets up once early on and then sleeps through till 5. Dante is up and down still, [...]
Evoking Memories
Posted on April 7, 2008 - Filed Under Personal | 2 Comments
When I was a little girl, about 8 or 9, I had really bad eczema on my hands. It was so bad that the knuckles would crack open and bleed and nothing we tried worked to stop it. It was painful and itchy and I hated it, but learned to live with it.
Then one day [...]
And Now the Monitor

You´d think I would have had my fair share of computer problems by now, wouldn´t you? But no. Apparently, now that my computer has been all but replaced, my monitor has decided to commit suicide. I guess it couldn´t take the pressure from the new compu. :S
As I type this, my screen is going from [...]
